My M16a3

Shooter · December 23rd, 2005, 16:43

:-) :razz: I am sooo happy! I just got home from the local army surplus store, and I bought this beautiful 1:1 M16a3! I'll get some pics of it ASAp, but my camera is acting weird. It has a med cap magazine, laser pointer w/pressure pad, R.I.S. rail on bottom of barrel and on top of receiver (where the inronsight is). Also has functional T-handle, mag release, and selector switch.
It is a very nice gun. :-) :razz:

Let me guess, Cyma, Crosman, or something like that?

Shooter · December 23rd, 2005, 16:48

Some other Japenese company. Whats wrong with that? Thats all I can afford right now.

Bob the Angry Potato · December 23rd, 2005, 16:49

Uh.. which Japanese company?

nutboi · December 23rd, 2005, 16:50

who said there was anything wrong with it yet. so...what company is it?

Shooter · December 23rd, 2005, 16:50

On the box it says "Aika".

Manaconda · December 23rd, 2005, 16:53

Hey if it was all you could afford and you like it that's cool just as long as you know you'll be spending alot more in the future. I did the exact same thing so I'm not bashing you. I just wish I had have saved that money and put it towards some thing diffrent.

Have fun and good for you. Lets see those pics.

Shooter · December 23rd, 2005, 16:54

Ok, thx. I cant get the pics rite now cause my camera is acting weird. Lemme try again.

Bob the Angry Potato · December 23rd, 2005, 16:55

Hmm... 'Aika'.
Never heard of it, for some reason...
You have any idea how hard it shoots?

Shooter · December 23rd, 2005, 16:56

Sorry, no go on the camera.
Shoots pretty low, only 230 fps. Not bad for an "Aika".

Shooter · December 23rd, 2005, 16:58

Ya, I havent heard of Aika either. I searched for a website but there was none. If you are wondering, I got it at Oakville Outdoors and Surplus.

Bob the Angry Potato · December 23rd, 2005, 16:59

Ah... advertised velocities are usually wrong, so I doubt its 230 fps. Try chronying it when you have the chance...
Here's a few things,
1) Can it go through a sheet of cardboard, paper, or just tissue?
2) ROF?
3) Battery type?
4) Internals?
Try shooting some coke cans or something, and post some pictures.

EDIT: Oakville Outdoors and Surplus? Hell, I'm in Oakville for the holidays, I gotta check this out.

Shooter · December 23rd, 2005, 17:02

Well, goes thru paper, tissue for sure, Lol; almost goes thru cardboard (BB sticks out halfway). Im not sure about the internals and such because I jsut got it like an hour ago. When I come back from Sudbury (leaving an 10min) I will post the pics.

Bob the Angry Potato · December 23rd, 2005, 17:03

Ah... I'll hazard-guess around 200 FPS.
Sure, that'd be great...
You know where that store is? I need directions, may head over there sometime, and I'm from Nova Scotia (Thus, I don't live here and have no idea where it is).

Speers road in Oakville. Try Mapquest.com for directions. Correction: box says "Yika". http://www.oakvilleoutdoorsurplus.com/
